Get Smarter workouts and faster results with quality training in the comfort of your own home with the Spirit XE195 Elliptical Trainer and get on the road to a great cardio workout.

Why choose to invest in the Spirit XE195 Elliptical Trainer, instead of a treadmill or a semi-recumbent bike?

The elliptical can be considered a middle ground product when comparing it to other forms of cardiovascular exercise.

A reason to choose this over a treadmill would be the lack of impact on the joints.

Another advantage is that along with strengthening your heart, you can also focus on strengthening all lower body muscles by increasing the resistance necessary to complete the ellipse pattern.

The advantage over a semi-recumbent bike is that this form of exercise is full weight bearing.

This means that along with strengthening your muscles, you will maintain or increase the bone density in your lower body.

The first step is to decide what features you desire. The XE series ranges from a basic unit with limited programming to units with sophisticated programming, adjustability, and incline features.

Muscle Activation

It’s important to understand which muscle groups are gaining the most benefit during your workout. On our ellipticals, you will be using your glute (bottom), hamstring (back of your thigh), quad (thigh), calf, pec and arm muscles. The LED lights will activate in three degrees of engagement: Green represents minimal involvement, Amber medium involvement, and Red, full or heavy involvement. Use this quick reference to challenge yourself during your workout.

Music & Air Conditioning

We have integrated into most of our consoles a set of audio speakers. Simply plug in your choice of MP3 player or cell phone (adapter cord provided) and you can enjoy your favorite music to keep you going the extra mile. We’ve also built a swivel fan into most of our consoles to keep you a little cooler.

Heart Rate % Profile

Heart Rate training is proven to be one of the best ways to measure your workout. Our Heart Rate % Profile gives you a quick reference of your % compared to maximum projected heart rate. This is determined by your age, which you entered during the programming phase of any of the programs. The LED lights up in Amber for 50-60%, Green for 65% to 80%, and Red for 85%+. This is a quick reference for you to gauge your workout.

Easy-to-Read, Adjustable Consoles

All of our home elliptical trainers have a tilting console with ten degrees of adjustment, so that you can get the best viewing angle on our bright blue LCD screen. Our consoles are positioned so you can easily reach them to set up your program and push start. The contact heart rate grips are perfectly positioned on the lower handlebar to keep you in the proper ergonomic position during your workout. Our dual action handlebars have a long padded grip so you can find the most comfortable position.

Fitness Within Your Grasp

Our home elliptical fitness trainers are designed so you can easily adjust the resistance during your workout. You can adjust the resistance level on the XE195 from thumb switches, which are integrated into the heart rate grips located on the lower handlebars. The XE295 and XE395 models have the adjustment controls built directly into the dual action arms. You can adjust the resistance on the XE295 and the resistance and elevation on the XE395 without ever moving your hands from the handlebars. We have also located the water bottle holder for easy access and built a MP3 / cell phone slot into the console so you can listen to your favorite music.

Kinetic Energy

Some fitness equipment companies talk about the weight of their flywheel as though it were the most important part of the elliptical trainer. But a heavy flywheel can actually make it more difficult to use, and create an unsmooth pedaling motion. Instead, we focus on the kinetic energy at the foot pedal. Taking into account the flywheel weight, pulley diameters, belt length, belt tension, foot pedal angle, and stride length we have developed the perfect formula to assure the smoothest start and finish during each elliptical motion. The best way to feel the right kinetic energy is to get on a Spirit XE195 Elliptical Trainer and give it a workout.

Two Inch Q-Factor

All Spirit Elliptical Trainers come with a two inch Q-Factor. The Q-Factor is the distance between the inside of the pedals. By minimizing the space between the inside of the pedals, your body will be in a more ergonomically correct position as you workout. This positioning also makes the motion closer to that of walking/running.

The Two-Degree Difference

Spirit Fitness elliptical trainers have an integrated two-degree inward tilt to make your workout more comfortable. This exclusive design puts you in a more ergonomically correct position. Two degrees may not sound like much, but this is an example of where the spirit of innovation makes for a better workout experience. This small but critical detail is only one example of what separates the Spirit Fitness elliptical trainers from their competitors.

CONSOLE FEEDBACK: All pertinent information is displayed during the workout and a summary of accumulated data scrolls when you have finished

FOOT PEDALS: Spirit Fitness elliptical trainers are the only elliptical trainers that have an integrated two-degree inward tilt to make your workout more comforatble. This exclusive design puts you in a more ergonomically correct position.

Q-FACTOR: The Q-Factor is the distance between the inside of the pedals. We minimized the distance between our pedals to two inches. Because of this, your body will be in a more ergonomically correct position as you workout. This positioning also makes the motion closer to that of walking/running.

COOLING FAN: Cooling fans that swivel are standard on all of our elliptical trainers. This may just be the reason you extend your workout by a few minutes.

TRANSPORTATION: There is a bar across the back of the unit that allows you to safely lift and roll the elliptical for repositioning

HILL: This program follows a triangle or pyramid type of gradual progression from approximately 10% of maximum effort (the level that you chose before starting this program) up to a maximum effort which lasts for 10% of the total workout time, then a gradual regression of resistance back to approximately 10% of maximum effort.

FAT BURN: This program follows a quick progression up to the maximum resistance level (default or user input level) that is sustained for 2/3 of the workout. This program will challenge your ability to sustain your energy output for an extended period of time.

CARDIO: This program presents a quick progression up to near maximum resistance level (default or user input level). It has slight fluctuations up and down to allow your heart rate to elevate, and then recover repeatedly, before beginning a quick cool down. This will build up your heart muscle and increase blood flow and lung capacity.

STRENGTH: This program has a gradual progression of resistance up to 100% of maximum effort that is sustained for 25% of workout duration. This will help build strength and muscular endurance in the lower body and glutes. A brief cool down follows.

INTERVAL: This program takes you through high levels of intensity followed by recovery periods of low intensity. This program utilizes and develops your “Fast Twitch” muscle fibers which are used when performing tasks that are intense and short in duration. These deplete your oxygen level and spike your heart rate, followed by periods of recovery and heart rate drop to replenish oxygen. Your cardiovascular system gets programmed to use oxygen more efficiently.

MANUAL: The Manual program works as the name implies, manually. This means that you control the workload and not the computer.
